Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 91 Wind and Rain (2)

Shen Yuechen listened to the sound of the rain outside, and smiled wryly: "The rain is so loud, I can't sleep even if I lie down, mother, go to sleep first, I will sit for a while longer."

Wu Ma knew that she was light-headed and would not be able to sleep well if there was movement around her, so she wanted to get up and go to the kitchen to cook a bowl of soothing soup for her.Coincidentally, Mrs. Li was also there. She seemed to have just cooked a bowl of fish soup, which made the whole room smell of fish.

Wu Ma couldn't help frowning and said, "It smells so strong."

After hearing this, Mrs. Li hurriedly smiled and said: "Aunt Qin just sent someone to say that she wants to drink crucian carp soup, and she didn't allow garlic, ginger and seasoning, and said that she would send it over when it is cooked."

Wu Ma shook her head helplessly.Aunt Qin's personality has always been tricky, and she would often come up with some ideas to deliberately embarrass the people in the kitchen.

Mrs. Li also didn't like Qin's behavior, and then said: "Aunt Qin must not like those fishy fish soup. I guess she prepared it for that dead cat again. That little beast is always running around in the yard A few days ago, I just scratched that kid Tweety, but fortunately it was Tweety who scratched, if I hurt my grandma and aunts, the consequences will be..."

Wu Ma remained silent the whole time, she just grabbed a handful of herbs and put them into boiling water, and boiled them slowly over a low heat.

Seeing that she was silent and only concentrated on guarding the medicine pot, Mrs. Li withdrew in embarrassment.

After a while, Wu Ma brought Anshen Soup into Shen Yuechen's room. She wanted to talk about the cat at first, but she didn't say anything when she thought that she was tired all day.

After Shen Yuechen drank the calming soup, she fell asleep very quickly, perhaps because she was too tired during the day, or the effect of the soothing soup was too good, she slept very soundly this time.

The next morning, accompanied by the fresh and moist breath after the rain, Shen Yuechen woke up refreshed.

Thanks to Mama Wu, she had a very rare good night's sleep, her fatigue was gone, and her mood improved.However, this morning's good mood did not last long, and she heard a surprising news from the maids.

Last night, Mrs. Sun had a nightmare. Moreover, she was terribly frightened, and she heard that she accidentally moved her fetus.

When Shen Yuechen heard this, her heart skipped a beat, she just felt that the situation was not good.

At this time, many people have come to Sun's bedroom. Cao is sitting by the bed and softly comforting the pale Sun Wenpei. Something startled.Liu Shi, who had a calm personality, stood on the head of the bed with a worried expression on his face, as if he didn't know what to do.Mother Xia stood at the end of the bed, holding a bowl of steaming millet porridge in her hand.The most surprising thing was that Qin Taoxi was also there. She was wearing a long silk embroidered dress with juan gauze, and she was still glamorously dressed.She sat on one side, sipping tea slowly, without even looking at Mrs. Sun, apparently not caring about her.

Shen Yuechen put on a worried expression, walked quickly to Mrs. Sun's bed, and asked softly: "I heard that my sister had a nightmare last night? How is it now? Do you want to invite the doctor to take a look?"

Sun Wenpei had been silently in a daze at first, but when she heard Shen Yuechen's voice, she immediately regained her senses, held her hand, and said in an excited tone: "Grandma, someone is going to kill me, someone is going to kill my concubine."

Her hands were cold, and her expression was frightened, which didn't seem like she was pretending.

Shen Yuechen frowned, and said, "Speak slowly, what's going on?"

The expression on Sun Wenpei's face suddenly became a little strange, he turned his head and stared straight at the window, and said with a gloomy face, "There was always a dark shadow outside the window, as if someone was standing...but his eyes, his eyes It's twinkling, glowing, it's too scary, it's really scary..." She just finished speaking, and suddenly covered her face with her hands, unable to cry.

When Shen Yuechen heard the words, she knew that someone was deliberately causing trouble, she raised her eyes to look at everyone, and then said coldly: "Mother Xia, who was the person who was watching the night in the house last night?"

Mama Xia took a step forward, bowed and replied: "Back to Eldest Mistress, the people who watched the night last night were slaves and servant girl Yun'er."

"Did you find anything unusual? Did you see the black shadow Aunt Sun mentioned?"

Xia's mother shook her head helplessly: "Last night there was a thunderstorm, all the windows in the house were closed, and the slaves didn't see anything." Last night, she and Yun'er took turns guarding Mrs. Sun, staying close to each other. saw nothing.Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, Sun Wenpei suddenly sat up in a jerk, whimpering and crying non-stop, insisting that he saw some dark shadow, his whole body was trembling, as if he had seen a ghost.

Mother Xia felt that Sun Wenpei was just frightened by her own nightmare, and then she deliberately made a fuss over a molehill, and continued: "Young Mistress, Aunt Sun has not been sleeping very well these days, she must have had a nightmare last night, Scared myself."

Sun Wenpei looked at Mother Xia tearfully, her face turned pale immediately, her shoulders trembled slightly, and she choked up, "I saw it, I really saw it, the shadow is outside, and his eyes are still twinkling With a dim light, it's like... like a cat's eyes..."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was startled, and then all their eyes fell on Qin Taoxi. After all, she was the only one who kept cats in this yard.

Qin Taoxi suddenly laughed when he heard the words, but there was a trace of disdain in the smile, and then, he stopped the teacup with a "clang", and said coldly: "What do you mean by sister? Could it be that you are talking about my glass?" ?”

Sun Wenpei's body trembled even more, he glanced at Qin Taoxi secretly, then lowered his head again, without saying a word.

Shen Yuechen was also a little confused for a while, only to see Qin Taoxi getting up slowly, with a disapproving expression and said: "I came to visit with good intentions. I didn't expect that my sister not only refused to love me, but also suspected and seriously injured me, which is really shocking." My heart is chilling! My Liuli is just a kitten. If my sister doesn’t like it, just tell me it’s okay, and I’ll just send it away, why bother to make up such a lie!” After finishing speaking, She lightly smoothed her temple hair with her fingers painted with Yin Hong Kou Dan, and blessed Shen Yuechen, and said: "Grandma, the concubine should not have come today, so I won't sit any longer, so I will take my leave first." .”

Shen Yuechen hurriedly said: "Aunt Sun was also panicked for a while, and she was a little lost. I hope my sister will not take what she said."

Qin Taoxi looked at her with a half-smile look in his eyes, and said lightly, "It's okay. The concubine behaves upright and sits upright, so naturally she's not afraid of being framed!"

Such a thing happened early in the morning, and Shen Yuechen inevitably had to muster all his energy to deal with it.However, according to her own thoughts, the matter of Sun's nightmare may not really be related to Qin's.

In the yard, Qin Taoxi was the only one who raised cats, and Sun Wenpei was frightened by strange things like cats, so everyone would immediately think that Qin Taoxi did it.If it was really Qin Taoxi who did it, then she would have no idea that she was trying to die!
Shen Yuechen doesn't like to use guesswork to decide things, and concludes that Qin's is wrong just based on Sun's own words, not to mention, Sun's words are unclear and vague.Moreover, there was a thunderstorm last night, even if something really scared her, it would only be a person, not a cat.

Cats are most afraid of water, and they will not crawl around in heavy rain. Out of survival instinct, they will hide and find a suitable place to shelter from the rain.This is science, not speculation.

Shen Yuechen took a closer look at the pale-faced Sun. She really didn't look like she was acting, but if she was really playing tricks and making things out of nothing, then her acting skills were really good.

The story of Sun's nightmare quickly reached the ears of the old lady and the eldest lady.After the old lady and Li Shi heard this, although they didn't say anything to blame, their expressions were slightly displeased. Shen Yuechen hurriedly got up and blessed the two of them, and said softly: "I will thoroughly investigate this matter and let Sun Auntie can raise her baby with peace of mind."

No matter what, the colored glaze next to Qin Taoxi can't be kept, and must be sent out as soon as possible, so as not to cause trouble again.

The old lady pondered slightly: "Could it be that she bumped into something unclean?"

Hearing this, Shen Yuechen intentionally didn't answer, and only heard Li Shi said calmly: "Supposedly there won't be any collisions... We just went to the Guanyin Temple to pray for blessings yesterday."

The old lady sighed softly: "Our Zhu family's child is difficult to raise! Especially your eldest son, it is not easy to give birth to a child smoothly!" After saying this, she looked at Shen Yuechen thoughtfully, She secretly said in her heart: Although Sun's birth was a good one, it is still a concubine's child after all.

The old lady then said: "Tomorrow, you send someone to Jingxu Guan to predict good and bad luck for Mrs. Sun, don't really bump into any flower gods and rain gods and don't even know."

After thinking about it for a while, Li Shi nodded in agreement.

It was almost noon when Shen Yuechen left the main courtyard, and Chunming followed her closely. After walking out of the Gongyue Gate, seeing no one around, she approached Shen Yuechen and said, "Miss, what are you going to do? What does this servant think?" This is a good opportunity to bring down Aunt Qin..."

The Qin family has always been arrogant and domineering, and it is rare for the young lady to have an excuse. It would be a pity if she didn't take this opportunity to show her some seriousness.

Shen Yuechen kept silent all the time, why didn't she want to make Qin Shi tidy up and be honest.However, in the deep house compound, everything must be done with care.She doesn't want to be used as a gun, especially by people like Sun Shi and Qin Shi who have their own agendas.

Shen Yuechen was in a daze, and asked Chun Ming after a while, "How is Aunt Sun? Did the doctor come? What did the doctor say?"

"It's nothing." Chunming replied: "The doctor said that Auntie Sun is just suffering from a fever and inner burns, and her heart is out of control. She just needs to nourish her heart and calm her mind, nourish her mind and take care of it slowly."

Take it easy?Well, the word "slowly", no matter whether you are sick or not, you can rely on it to cover up and deal with it.Looking at it this way, it turns out that there is nothing serious about Sun's body, but he just wanted to make a big fuss on purpose.

Shen Yuechen frowned slightly, and then ordered: "When you go back, let the little maids in the yard divide into two groups, and take turns guarding outside Sun's house every day and night, paying attention to all the movements inside and outside the house, and giving her whatever she wants." Whatever she wants, give her whatever she wants."
